Even though 2009 had been a relatively good year for us, I was confident that with your continued support and commitment, we would do even better in 2010. Bolstered by a quick economic recovery in 2010, I am proud to announce that we have succeeded in surpassing our 2009 performance. In fact, we not only met, but have even exceeded our forecasted sales and growth target for 2010. However, we should not be complacent and shall work towards maintaining our growth target of 7% for this year. We have also managed to maintain our “zero accident” safety record for 2010, and shall continue doing so. We must continue to be vigilant at work sites at all times and uphold the highest safety standards to maintain this safety record. This year, my direction for you is to strengthen our capabilities and resources in the engineering and maintenance services, and also to strengthen our presence in new and existing territories. With the proper mindset, I am confident that we will be able to achieve our targets and overcome each and every obstacle along the way. I am aware that without the support and commitment of our clients, partners and most importantly your effort, our targets would not have been achieved. I thank all of you for your continued support, commitment and effort. I am happy to share this achievement with all of you and let us not forget to continue to work harder towards a better year ahead. Mr Seiichi Daita, Managing Director/Chief Executive Officer I wish you all good health and a happy, prosperous and productive 2011.

One day, I started jogging in to the hope of reducing my weight; and found that running was not only interesting, but also rewarding. This is my fifth try running the Full Marathon (42.1km), and my first attempt D uring my younger days I disliked running. However, as I got older, I wanted to keep healthy and fit. I started running in September in Singapore. 2005 at the age of 50+. My first run was the 10km My best record is a time of 3hrs 6min in the 2010 Tokyo marathon. This time, 2nd Link Bridge Run, where I came in with a time of however, my finish time was 3hrs 40min 16sec. This is by far my worst record, 1hr 15mins. After that I signed up for the Standard as it was very hot in Singapore that day (especially with my headgear). However, Chartered Run every year. So far, I have taken part in I still ranked a respectable 165th place out of 19,000 participants of the full the 10km (2005 to 2007), 21km (2008) and 42.1km marathon. (2009) run. For the 2010 marathon, held on 5th You might wonder why I wore a funny costume at the race. Well, it was December, I took part in the 10km race, flagged off because I knew that people would take notice and most likely cheer for a runner at Esplanade. The race started around 8.25am and wearing a funky costume. It heightens my excitement when the attention is on the weather was very hot. Although the heat made me — and I am spurred to perform my best when the crowd cheers me on. I will it tough going, always remember that you can make try the Singapore marathon again next year, and my target is to finish the race in it to the end point if you have the determination to less than 3 hours. push yourself to complete the race successfully. Do not worry about coming in last, as there are many participants that join the race for the fun of it, and will walk or jog behind you. Hope to see you all in next year’s run. Mr Alan Tan (left) and Mr Andy Chan (right) running in the marathon Andy Chan T his is my second marathon run. I hardly found time to train for this marathon and kept telling myself that this would be my last marathon; but perhaps this was just an excuse. However, during the run, I found that my passion for running had returned. I think that one is able to renew a lost passion for things when putting one’s heart into doing it and taking it seriously. After completing this run, I feel like taking part in next year’s marathon too. Anyone, care to join me? Cheers to Mr Hashimoto, who placed 165th out of 19,000 participants Our Managing Director, Mr Seiichi Daita, would like to encourage all staff to engage in such sporting activities, include exercise as part of their daily life, and to stay healthy always. Remember we can be busy and still maintain a healthy lifestyle.
